Verak remembered very clearly that when he and Keating had dinner at noon yesterday, the bald prisoner at the same table with him did not have a good impression of him. When he left, he also brought most of the prisoners with him. This bald prisoner should be the prisoner.
He is a very famous leader.
He very much hoped to get to know this prisoner. After getting to know him well, he might be able to include him in the escape plan, and then use his influence among the prisoners to provide more convenience for subsequent plans.
The prison's daily release was divided into two batches, with thousands of people in each batch. Verak was lucky that he and the bald prisoners were released from ten to eleven o'clock, so he first found Ross to understand the situation of the bald prisoners.
"Ross, I want to ask you something." Ross was playing cards with other prisoners. Verak squatted beside him and watched for a while, then pointed to the bald prisoner on the other side who was alone with his eyes closed and concentrating, "Who is that person?"
"You mean the bald one?" Ross studied the cards in his hand and glanced casually in the direction Verak pointed.
"right."
Although the bald prisoners did not have the same privileges as Verak and Keating, a large 'vacuum' appeared inexplicably around them, and no prisoners came forward to chat or play cards.
"Dawn, it's Big Brother." Ross pulled out a card and threw it on the ground, "What? Do you want to get to know him?"
"Quite curious." Verak said.
"Brother Daun is both easy to get along with and difficult to get along with. Anyway, I feel like he doesn't like you very much, so you'd better not provoke him." The prisoner who was playing cards with Ross witnessed what happened in the cafeteria yesterday and advised Verak.
Verak did not give up his idea, but became more and more curious: "Can you tell me about him?"
"What's there to say..." To the prisoners playing cards, everything was familiar. "He has been here for about ten years, and he was already a big brother when I came here..."
"I know better." Another prisoner who had been in Damans Prison for a long time and had some 'qualifications' took the initiative to say, "He was imprisoned seven or eight years ago. At that time, he organized prisoners to escape.
, but they all failed in the end. Later, he gave up the idea of going out, and worked here with peace of mind, not causing trouble. He only resolved conflicts between other prisoners from time to time, and occasionally stood up for everyone, so he was gradually recognized by everyone.
.”
Verak looked at Dawn lying on the ground resting from a distance: "Why do you feel that he is so unsocial?"
Verak didn't notice Dawn before, after all, there were too many people in the square. Today when he observed Dawn, he discovered a very strange place. In the cafeteria yesterday, Dawn seemed to be surrounded by a lot of people, but he couldn't.
Now while others are chatting and playing cards together, he is lying there alone without touching anyone. This is very contradictory.
"Brother Dawn has a really weird personality. He is usually very taciturn, but he is very convincing in his work and helps everyone a lot. No one cares whether he is easy to get along with or not," said a prisoner who was also watching.
Ross thought of something and temporarily looked away from the cards in his hand, looking at Dawn with gratitude: "I was a slow learner when I was first arrested, so my work was not up to standard in the first two or three days, and the prison guards did not allow it.
I ate. I was not used to it at that time, and the road was bumpy when I came here. If I didn’t eat,
I had no energy to work the next day. I realized that I would die sooner or later if I continued like this, so I thought about committing suicide. Unexpectedly, when I was at my most desperate, Dawn gave me his meal and asked me to work with him.
Many inmates helped me and helped me survive the most difficult days, which saved my life."
"Many people here have received help from Brother Dawn. He is much more reliable than someone like you who only talks about fighting for our rights." There were prisoners who were dismissive of what Verak did the day before yesterday.
Said mercilessly.
"What nonsense are you talking about? How do you know Chris is just talking?" Ross glared at the prisoner and spoke for Verak.
"Indeed, I lacked consideration." Verak did not refute. "A few days ago, I felt that my status was higher and I could fight Lecter. I'm sorry."
Verak spoke very sincerely, and the prisoner was too embarrassed to criticize his well-intentioned behavior: "Actually, it's nothing, I just said it casually, don't take it to heart."
"It's okay, you're right." Verak's eyes were always attracted to Dawn. He patted Rose, stood up and walked towards Dawn, "Then you guys can have fun first, I'll go talk to Dawn."
"What are you talking about?" Ross turned around and asked.
"Just chat." Verak replied, walked through the noisy crowd, walked to Dawn and sat down in front of him, "Dawn?"
Dawn, who had a bald head and a beard, slowly opened his eyes and looked coldly at Verak sitting next to him: "Is something wrong?"
"I want to talk to you." Verak said.
"Don't disturb my rest." Dawn didn't care about Verak's affairs, so she had no desire to chat.
Verak didn't listen to Dawn's words and left. Instead, he also lay down: "Do you just lie down like this every day when you go to relax?"
Dawn said nothing.
"I really want to go out and breathe fresh air and bask in the sun to become commonplace things." Verak didn't care about Dawn's attitude and said to himself, "But that's impossible, right? Why don't you start from now on?"
No one has successfully escaped from prison, and no prisoner has escaped alive in any form...I heard they said you have been here for seven or eight years, can you teach me how to adapt to living here?"
"Just don't talk about 'wanting to go out'." Dawn replied coldly.
"I don't think so even if I say it."
"Just because you don't say it doesn't mean you don't think about it."
Verak tilted his head: "You are still thinking about it, right?"
"Don't disturb my rest." Dawn ended the topic.
"I miss my friends very much." Verak refused to leave. "Although I have been imprisoned for less than a month, I really miss them. I don't know how they are doing in a foreign country, and I don't know what they are doing.
What kind of difficulties and obstacles we face when fighting for our ideals.”
"Where's the family?"
Hearing that Dawn actually asked about it, Verak felt a little confident: "I don't have any memory. I was taken to work in a factory when I was thirteen or fourteen years old. Then I ran away because I couldn't bear it anymore and wandered all the way to Ci."
Ward City, grew up there.”
"Aren't you a noble?"
"That happened a long time ago. Due to some very complicated reasons, I went to live in Lezein." Verak revealed some secrets.
Dawn did not delve into the twists and turns involved: "What do you want from me?"
"Want to get to know you."
"What can I know? It's not like outside here. Dealing with people can help. We all can't protect ourselves. Just think about how to survive." Dawn sat up.
"If you have made up your mind to live here, you really don't know anyone. After all, you can't make yourself suffer any less." Verak also sat up, "But escaping from prison is different."
Verak spoke of breaking out of prison and testing Dawn.
"Every new batch of prisoners who come in are unwilling to stay here. I am too lazy to advise you. Only when you truly understand what powerlessness is, will you give up this idea." Dawn was pessimistic to the point of being peaceful, "It's just that the price is different.
, some people can still survive if they fail to escape from prison, and some will die."
"It is better to die on the way out of prison than to die from exhaustion, illness, or torture." Verak proved his determination through his own deeds, "That's why I persisted under Lecter's abuse."
"Then just do it, don't think about cooperating with me." Dawn knew that Verak's purpose in contacting him was to join him in escaping from prison. Over the years, many prisoners like Verak who learned about his situation came to him for discussion.
, but they were all rejected by him.
Verak scratched his hair.
It was precisely because he knew that Dao En often helped other prisoners and was not the kind of person who would betray others for a little profit that he revealed the prison escape for the first time.
"Well... let's talk about it then." The jailbreak plan is still unclear at present. Verak has nothing to show off to prove to Dawn that his jailbreak is different from others. He can only wait until he has laid a solid foundation and has enough feasibility.
After sex, it is possible for Dawn, who is still desperate, to have the idea of escaping from prison again.
Verak stood up and left without contacting any other prisoners.
In his opinion, the next step is to work on Dawn. As Dawn is the most prestigious among the prisoners, as long as he is involved in the plan, the other prisoners will naturally be inclined to cooperate.
The break time passed quickly, and all the prisoners were brought back to the work area to continue working. After working until twelve o'clock, they came to the cafeteria for lunch one after another.
After only half a day of contact, Verak got mixed up with a small group of prisoners headed by Ross. Ross was a kind man, and the prisoners in his social circle were also easy to talk to. Verak got along very well with them, and everyone soon became friends.
Accepting his transformation from the special one who fought for power with Lecter to mediocrity.
After eating together, Verak was taken to the infirmary by the prison guards to change his dressing.
Because Verak started working and didn't have enough time, Lecter simply waited for him in the infirmary for questioning.
"Good afternoon." Verak saw Lecter sitting next to the hospital bed. After entering, he said hello first, then took off his prison uniform and lay down on it to wait for the doctor to change the dressing.
"How do you feel?" Lecter asked about the work situation.
"It's quite tiring, plus I'm injured, and I feel like I can't hold on any longer." Verak didn't hide his condition in front of Lecter, "But the job I do is already the easiest, so there's nothing to complain about."
of."
Lecter held his chin with one hand and watched the doctor remove the bandage on Verak's body and change the dressing: "Because I specially arranged the lightest bandage, otherwise you will definitely collapse from exhaustion, and I don't want anything to go wrong with you at this juncture.
"
"Thank you." Verak gritted his teeth and endured the pain of the bandage being pulled off.
"Actually, you don't have to work. Keating has been locked up in 208, and he doesn't know your situation. You can pretend to be working. I will arrange for you to go to the interrogation room regularly every day." Lecter felt that Verak
There is no need to do so much in the bitter meat scheme.
"I can't pretend to be tired after work, and once Mr. Keating finds out that it's fake, he will definitely be more wary of me. Then you won't have to think about the golden clue." Verak thought for a while.
It made sense to convince Lecter, and at the same time, he also labeled himself as weak and unable to pretend.
Lecter thought for a moment and made no further demands: "What did you and Keating talk about during the walk today?"
"He asked me how my work was going. I said I was very tired and could hardly hold on any longer. He couldn't bear it. I felt that his heart had been shaken. This trick was still useful." Verak looked like he had made careful arrangements.
, "I plan to gradually show myself more and more unbearable in the next few days. He should relent, and if I'm lucky, he might tell me the detailed location."
Listening to Verak's prediction of the future, Lecter felt relieved a little, and his body also changed from tense to relaxed: "If this is the best, I will give you a very sufficient reward."
"We agreed to let me out if we find out the whereabouts of the gold." Verak pretended to be confident in Lecter's promise.
"Of course." Lecter smiled, "If you only ask for some clues, I can grant you some requests that I can fulfill. If you ask them all, I will give you your freedom and let you become the history of Dymans Prison.
The first prisoner to get out alive."
"Okay, wait for my good news." Verak said confidently.
The doctor applied new medicine to Verak's wound, lifted him up, and re-bandaged him.
"Behave well. If you can't hold on any longer and need any other help, you can always contact the prison guard and contact me," Lecter said.
After the doctor finished bandaging, Verak winked at Lecter. Lecter understood and sent the doctor out: "What's wrong?"
"How was your talk with the warden yesterday?" Verak asked about the development of their future plans.
"It went very well." Lecter's eyes were full of contempt, "Adel is just a small warden. I can greet my father and ask him to leave at any time. He will not threaten you. Just don't worry and help me.
"
Warden Adel is an important reason why Damans Prison is known as the Diamond Prison, allowing the government to safely throw in all kinds of difficult prisoners. Of course, it is not that easy to transfer him. Verak knows that Lecter is telling lies.
It was just to make himself feel at ease, but Adel didn't come to him today. The problem should have been solved, so he followed Lecter's wishes and faded the worried look on his face: "That's good, everything will be as we wish.
Come from before."
"Yeah." Lecter nodded, "It looks like your injury will take a while to heal. It's quite impressive that you can stand up so early."
"I think you can do it too. If I have a chance, I'll try to torture you." Seeing Lecter commenting on his physical condition easily, as if all this was not thanks to him, Verak replied provocatively.
Lecter laughed: "That wouldn't be fun."
"I think it's just fun." Verak put on his prison clothes and shoes, and stopped talking to Lecter, "Let's go."
